[Powers That Be]

Fairly easy. What song or songs best describe your character or a specific post?

[Natalie Talamasca]

The Fear You Won't Fall - Joshua Radin (For Natalie and John)

It hasn't felt like this before
It hasn't felt like home before you
And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel
This way
And I miss you more than I should
Than I thought I could
Can't get my mind off of you

24 - Jem (Since she only has 24 hours to live )

Been given 24 hours
To tie up loose ends
To make amends
His eyes said it all
I started to fall
And the silence deafened
Head spinning round
No time to sit down
Just wanted to
Run and run and run
Be careful they say
Don't wish life away,
Now I've one day

And I can't believe
How I've been wasting my time

Though pretty much the whole damn song works.

Feeling Good - Nina Simone (Cuase its just a great song. I picture Nat dancing to it.)

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

[Megan]

Indira's Song: Very good description of Indira if she is consumed by her desires and darkness inside. Demon rearing it's ugly head. *grins* Well, ugly or beautiful, depending on who you ask.

Wish I Had An Angel ~ Nightwish

I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel tonight

Deep into a dying day
I took a step outside an innocent heart
Prepare to hate me fall when I may
This night will hurt you like never before

Old loves they die hard
Old lies they die harder

I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel
Your Virgin Mary undone
I`m in love with my lust
Burning angelwings to dust
I wish I had your angel tonight

I`m going down so frail `n cruel
Drunken disguise changes all the rules

Old loves they die hard
Old lies they die harder

I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel
Your Virgin Mary undone
I`m in love with my lust
Burning angelwings to dust
I wish I had your angel tonight

Greatest thrill
Not to kill
But to have the prize of the night
Hypocrite
Wannabe friend
13th disciple who betrayed me for nothing!

Last dance, first kiss
Your touch my bliss
Beauty always comes with dark thoughts

[sighs and laughter]

I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel
Your Virgin Mary undone
I`m in love with my lust
Burning angelwings to dust
I wish I had your angel tonight

I wish I had an angel
I wish I had an angel
I wish I had an angel
I wish I had an angel

[Nemesis]

Not many people will remember this, but for the fight between Nemesis and Xian

Let's Do This Now - KoRn (the chorus)

Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, my fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Let's do this now!

For an overall character song, I lean towards another Nightwish number. I like the dual voice within it, reminds me of Kaia and Genhai in the early days.

10th Man Down - Nightwish

Today I killed, he was just a boy
Eight before him, I knew them all
In the fields a dying oath:
I'd kill them all to save my own

Cut me free
Bleed with me
Oh, no
One by one
We will fall
Down down
Pull the plug
End the pain
Gonna fight for life
Hold on tight
This ain't my fight

Deliver me from this war
It's not for me it's because of you
Devil's instant my eternity
Obey to kill to save yourself

Cut me free...

I envy the 9 lives that gave me hell
My path made up by their torn bodies
Man to man, soldier to soldier, dust to dust
Call me a coward but I can't take it anymore

..........the rest of the song works too.

[Pariah]

This is the song I really have in mind any time I'm playing Andy.

Dear Scene, I Wish I Were Deaf - Nightmare Of You

You were one step behind in that dismal school of mine
Needle and percocet instead of books on students desks
We were so charming, but the future was alarming
And now don't you go look so proud
Yes, guess who's laughing now?

And we've learned that life is one big game
Where the winners are all getting paid
So stop dragging your feet behind
You can't live with the folks all your life
So on those days home in your car
We jerked the steering wheel to the median
Joking that we'd end our lives
But we weren't joking all the time

"Start a band or throw a brick"
You lazy hipsters make me sick
Don't clap your hands; don't start to dance
Don't let them know that you're a fan

You may be living in Manhattan
But where are you really from? (Have you forgotten?)
Kid, you may be playing your music loud
But it's drowned out by your mouth

And we've learned that life is one big game
Where the winners are all getting paid
So stop dragging your feet behind
You can't live with the folks all your life
So on those days home in your car
We jerked the steering wheel to the median
Joking that we'd end our lives
But we weren't joking all the time

[Vanessa]

Well here are the two best songs I could find to describe Vanessa in terms of lyric content and mood.. What I listen to depends on the mood of the post, she is a musician afterall she has preally diverse tastes.

"Bridge Burning"
ZOX

I am stopping by to tell you
I'll be leaving here for good,
To go back to where I came from,
Like you always said I should.
I would be a liar if I said that I was fine,
'Cause you opened up my head
And you lost some of my mind.

I've been a fool.I've been full of you.
I've been lying here so long I don't know who I'm lying to.
But I'm set on fire
In spite of you.
I will burn another bridge and hope the river burns up too.
When I'm gone,
You'll be gone too.

Our hands are stained the color of the sky above our heads,
With things we haven't done
And words we haven't said.
Still the pain will come as some surprise.
When you burn a bridge the smoke gets in your eyes.

No, I've been a fool.
I've been full of you.
I've been lying here so long I don't know who I'm lying to.
But I'm set on fire
In spite of you.
I will burn another bridge and hope the river burns up too.
When I'm gone,
You'll be gone too.

The ashes blow away,
Trailing sheets of rain
All along the interstate
Somewhere into space.
I've got no place for ashes,
I've got no place for ashes,
I've got no place for ashes anyway.

I've been full of you.
I've been lying here so long I don't know who I'm lying to.
But I'm set on fire
In spite of you.
I will burn another bridge and hope the river burns up too.
When I'm gone,
When I'm gone,
When I'm gone,
You'll be gone too.


"Time To Burn"
The Rasmus

Fear of the dark tears me apart
won't leave me alone and time keeps running out

Just one more life, I'm so sick and tired
of singing the blues, I should turn my life around

[Chorus:]
Tell me why do I feel this way
all my life I`ve been standing on the borderline
too many bridges burned
too many lies I've heard
I had life but I can't go back
I can't do that, it will never be the same again
and I know I don't
have any time to burn

they follow me home, disturbing my sleep
but I'll find a place, place where they cannot find me
maybe I'm lost, and maybe I'm scared
but too many times I've closed the doors behind me

[Chorus]

leave it all behind
cross the borderline
face the truth, don't have any time to...
don't have any time to burn

[Chorus]

[Adriana]

The first for Adriana Diablo is

Godsmack-Make me Believe

Throw away my dreams
This fight for my life isn't getting behind me
And I've been told to scream
Where no one can hear me, it doesn't mean nothing

So make me believe
Just take me away from this hell I've created
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down in flames

I know this can't be right
There's got to be something more that I can live for
And I can only hide
Inside of this sickness for so long again

So make me believe
Just take me away from this hell I've created
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down

Make me believe
Just take me away from temptation that's calling me
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down in flames

Running in circles
Confusion is calling my name
Hiding inside of this poisoning madness again
I'm tired, I'm broken
I'm walking along with the dead
Will I ever feel like I once did?

So make me...

Make me believe
Just take me away from this hell I've created
And I'm afraid
I'm breaking my own vows knowing I'll go down

Make me believe
Make me believe
Make me believe
I'm breaking my own vows, knowing I'll go down in flames

The second is Collective Soul-In Between:

In between us
Good and evil wait
To lie beside us
In our bed we make

In between us
Caution never heeds
We prey on weakness
Then beg for sympathy

In between words
Silence parades so confusion is heard
Our voices afraid
To speak up and reassure
So in between words we remain
In between

In between us
Hope we've yet to see
We long for healings
But the scars never leave

Silence fills the void
Of love and hate
An effective tool
When used to separate
Now separate

[Nightwalker]

Nightwalker has two actually. The first is more about the only love in his life that he left behind in Chicago... mostly due to the fact that she hates his living guts. The second more fits his frame of mind in general. Both are by Muse strangely.

Both of these songs are dark, brooding and epic. They fit the character perfectly in what he thinks he is and what he seeks to do and be.



Stockholm Syndrome - Muse

I won't stand in your way
let your hatred grow
and she'll scream
and she'll shout
and she'll pray
and she had a name
yeah she had a name

and I won't hold you back
let your anger rise
and we'll fly
and we'll fall
and we'll burn
no one will recall
no one will recall

this is the last time I'll abandon you
and this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could

look to the stars
let hope burn in your eyes
and we'll love
and we'll hope
and we'll die
all to no avail
all to no avail

this is the last time I'll abandon you
and this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could

this is the last time I'll abandon you
and this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could
I wish I could



Butterflies And Hurricanes - Muse

change,
everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called
fights, battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

best,
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

change,
everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called
fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

best,
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

don't,
let yourself down
don't let yourself go
your last chance has arrived

best,
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

[Pariah]

After much thought and frustration, I do believe I finally have a song for Ithio.

Wild - Poe

I go wild cause you break me open
Wild cause you left me here
I go wild

Wild because the chips are down
Wild because there isn't anybody else around
Wild when the waves start to break
And God knows they're breaking in me now

Wild 'cause it doesn't make sense
For me to cry out in my own defense
Wild 'cause I would do anything
To tear you off your precious fence

So this is what it's like living in limbo
First I'm high then I'm solo

I go wild
'Cause you break me open
Wild
'Cause you left me here
I go wild
'Cause your promises are broken
Wild
When I know you're near
I go wild
I go wild

Tell me what you've come for
Moving like a hunter through my back door
Leaving the perfume of all you adore
To die nameless on my floor

Yeah well we both know you don't play fair
I guess you really think that you get me there
Let's be honest perhaps this little ride
Is too much for even you to bear

You've got a lot of nerve to come back here
You're not the only one who can smell fear

I go wild
'Cause you break me open
Wild
'Cause you left me here
I go wild
'Cause your promises are broken
Wild
Don't you get it dear
You're not the only one who lives on instincts
No I've got instincts of my own

You've got a lot of nerve to come back
Plan your attack yeah I am still waiting
You wrote the rules to try to contain me
You broke 'em
Now you have untamed me
I go wild
I go wild

Tell me what you've come for
What is it you adore
Won't you tell me?
What would you
Go wild for?

You've got a lot of nerve to come back here
Speak up my darling I have been waiting

I go wild
'Cause you break me open
Wild
'Cause you left me here
I go wild
'Cause your promises are broken
Wild
Don't you get it dear
You're not the only one who lives on instincts
No I've got instincts of my own

You've got alot of nerve to come back
Plan your attack yeah I am still waiting
You wrote the rules to try and contain me
You broke 'em
Now you have untamed me
I go wild
I go wild
